Williamson Magor Reports Explosive Revenue Growth but Deepens Losses in Q1 FY27
The diversified conglomerate posted a 139% YoY revenue jump, yet profit swung to a steep loss, highlighting volatile earnings from its investment-heavy model.
Williamson Magor's Q1 FY27 saw revenue leap 139% year-on-year to ₹1.17 crore, but profit plunged to a loss of ₹12.54 crore, continuing a pattern of sharp quarterly swings.
Williamson Magor & Co's first-quarter results for FY27 present a stark contrast: a massive surge in revenue was completely overshadowed by a severe plunge into losses. The holding company's top line grew dramatically, but profitability collapsed, underscoring the volatile nature of its investment-led earnings.
The numbers tell a story of extreme quarterly swings. Revenue for the quarter ended June 2026 soared to ₹1.17 crore, a staggering 139% increase from the same period last year and an even more dramatic 1,850% jump from the preceding quarter. However, profit after tax swung to a loss of ₹12.54 crore, down sharply from a profit of ₹1.77 crore a year ago. This represents an 808% decline year-on-year.
A look at the recent quarterly performance reveals this volatility is a recurring theme.
Revenue (₹ Cr)
Profit (₹ Cr)
| Metric | CurrentQ1 FY27 | PreviousQ4 FY26 | Same quarter LYQ1 FY26 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Period | Quarter ended June 2026 | Quarter ended March 2026 | Quarter ended June 2025 |
| Revenue (₹ Cr) | 1.17YoY +139% | 0.06 | 0.49 |
| Profit (₹ Cr) | -12.54YoY -808% | -2.53 | 1.77 |
The table shows profits swinging from a high of ₹22.71 crore in Q3 FY26 to deep losses in the last two quarters, while revenue remains at relatively low levels. On a trailing twelve-month (TTM) basis, the company has reported a profit of ₹9.41 crore on revenue of ₹2.64 crore, but the latest quarter's heavy loss will weigh on this figure going forward.
Key Points
- The company's annual performance for FY25 ended with a significant net loss of ₹181.39 crore on revenue of ₹2.85 crore.
- Stock performance has been weak, with the share price down 25.7% over the past year, though it shows a positive 21.9% return over three years.
- Key quality metrics reflect challenges, with a trailing twelve-month EPS of -₹165.56 and an interest cover deep in negative territory.
The core takeaway is that Williamson Magor's financials are highly susceptible to quarterly revaluations and one-off investment outcomes. The sharp divergence between revenue growth and profitability this quarter signals that translating top-line momentum into consistent bottom-line results remains the central challenge for this investment holding company.
